Ball Stuck in the Rim Coloring Page

Every playground knows this moment. A ball has jammed itself into the gap between the rim and the net and refuses to drop, and the drawing looks up at it from directly beneath so the mesh sits in front of the ball rather than behind it. That overlap is what makes the sheet worth coloring. The net is drawn as a full lattice of diamonds running from the rim down to the knot at the bottom, and the ball shows through it in sections, with its seam lines visible between the strands. Getting the ball to read as one solid object behind the net takes a steady hand and a single flat tone, which is a genuinely good exercise for an older child. Behind everything hangs the backboard, a large rounded rectangle with the shooter's square marked inside it, drawn in clean thin lines. The rim itself is a thick open ellipse. Keep the backboard pale so the trapped ball stays the thing you notice first.
